Big and Bad
I have noted recently that the suet feeders are under heavy assault by some of the baddest dudes in the neighborhood: grackles and catbirds.

Well, as we have said we generally tolerate the "trash" birds and have had decent relations with the grackles for two years. I'm hoping Mr./Ms. Blue Jay continues the good manners. But here's the thing: suet might get cut off in June! We shall see...
